the second functional programming language that anduril specifically has taken over as part of a fascist playbook move, specifically by installing their employees into the body that controls the

right?<br/><br/>cause once the customers you lied to about your stance on AI find out you’ve been using AI to develop your product, they’re going to be very angry and stop paying you<br/><br/>and because you used their ethics for your short-term gain, they’re going to never touch your product again. they’re going to insist nobody in their life or their social circle uses your product.<br/><br/>do you really think your office suite or email service is irreplaceable? do you really think there won’t be any consequences for you doing this? 2026-10-29T23:57:27Z

red flags over Proton’s direction, starting with the horribly insecure LLM features they pushed into Proton Mail and continuing with Yen’s support for Trump, the company doing a bitcoin wallet, their shitty chatbot, the straw poll community survey they did, the fucking obvious dark PR piece defending Yen that people kept linking, all the other weird shit around Proton on here and reddit and lemmy,

apparently it was very difficult to make the touchscreen macbook, a device that apple has prototyped in various forms for over a decade, because it was very hard to make a multitouch version of AppKit, a thing that already exists for iOS<br/><br/>please ignore all of my past and future posts about how fucking lazy the touchscreen macbook is as a concept and implementation and how apple didn’t do it before because it’s a horribly flawed interface on every other laptop I have with a touchscreen (they’re really cheap used), and those have the ability to fold into janky tablet mode and use a stylus, two things the new macbook can’t do 2026-10-29T11:31:19Z

at the posture on all the people in the marketing shots. touchscreen laptops are fucking horrible, I own several (used thinkpads, notably cheaper than the non-touchscreen ones). the one use case is folding it over and using it with a stylus, and an iPad’s better at that in all regards.<br/><br/>the new apple ceo jack termites or whatever is just going to reddit or clickbait youtube or even more

Lisp, an otherwise very good family of programming languages, was advertised as being uniquely good for AI on the basis of that crank belief, alongside a bunch of noise about expert systems and the ability to process symbols (literally a hash in a nametable) being the key to AGI. the latter being proven false many times led to the bursting of the first AI bubble.<br/><br/>the AI that works might be called machine learning, but that still gives it too much credit. it’s statistical methods applied intentionally to problems with a limited scope. that’s it. there’s no magic here, and certainly no ability for a thermostat or a lever to believe as a human mind does. 2026-08-28T12:43:00Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqszhl4jmnqsk6s32expcu230jnx7llpfr43n6w9fxxdnr5fm85dnxgzypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv64zcwd8 ok I need to check<br/><br/>has bill nye said anything disappointing about AI 2026-08-27T23:12:52Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyczey0tcv98mtvna4ddehw8ava6pxzaefsspxf4njw2q643477zszypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv6xln5cn do you ever taste a flavor and it tastes like vaping 2026-08-27T22:25:42Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsg9hzg48v8ssrmxp25yrazq5xp9w83wt5ncva89zmfznqffvpy3xqzypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv6hlzgt0 bankrupt: fedi is an anti-AI circlejerk and that’s why it’s not popular here<br/><br/>funded: fedi isn’t owned by a company selling AI and there’s no algorithm so outside of pathological cases (automated spam) it accurately represents the public’s revulsion towards AI 2026-08-27T13:42:32Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqstpqkx7uaxtfzt82u90rjrv2rhl6dqk98pujktyk92luvcfujmdlczypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv64e36tp do you think the wikipedians will mind if I make “List of Microsoft Products Designed to Grift Elementary Schools” a redirect to “List of Microsoft Products”? 2026-08-26T14:10:31Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8fn2aam70320w4hxvax6elwxc0kr0m87axx9styfc7rqfj0n438gzypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv699gxaz it’s really weird to see people post about Apple not betting on AI as Apple rushes the release of the ear cameras that can only feed photos into an LLM, right after Apple started a fight with the EU over the API they designed that lets an LLM access all the data on your device 2026-08-24T11:12:30Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqfy5sztnln38wa7dfyp76lrqtexwjsfydkc8hcaxwvq96pcjm47gzypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv6v6gyy8 in case you missed it, some ex-Apple ex-Nest ex-&lt;some bullshit AI startup&gt; guy decided to reply to my thread about having your LLM do brainfuck with their blog post where they had claude do a json parser in brainfuck, “something that’s never been done before”<br/><br/>and because the brainfuck world is very small, it didn’t take much searching to figure out where claude was plagiarizing from: <a href="https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/194538/json-formatter-in-your-least-favorite-language">https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/194538/json-formatter-in-your-least-favorite-language</a><br/><br/>it’s the same program except this one was written by a person in 2018 and it doesn’t look like absolute shit. in fact it has a lot of comments, unlike the slop one.<br/><br/>something to consider before you reply to any of my posts with adorable links to your fucking LLM-generated blog spam 2026-08-21T15:16:44Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs039dza0rharuzqm2lh23s42mqvjhnympt8m3le4pz462qswhrajgzypsaywsv23j6puhd9gyn8fe74hje6eglhe36yr2lmtzu4f736pxv65jgh47 &gt; We are completely overwhelmed, of course.
